Perseverance

Perseverance is a quality that often differentiates between a winner and a loser! Yes, if you see the literal meaning of this word, then it is the ability to continue despite challenges or lack of success.

There’s no road to success that is smooth all the way. They say, great things never come easy..they test you, break you, disappoint you, almost to the level that you decide to quit. But, then if every individual who went on to achieve great things in life, quit the struggle, then how is it that they achieved it never the less? Well, that’s the point. They persevered their way through the obstacles and failures rather than succumbing to them. Yes, they must have fallen down with disappointment, but only to get back again, with even greater determination to make it happen.

“When the going gets tough, the tough get going.” These tough people persevere, until they are successful. They learn from their failures and use them as stepping stones to their ultimate success! That is also precisely the reason that even after becoming so great and famous, most of them remain humble, because the hard times and their struggle through them makes them tough outside but soft inside. It trains them for all the struggles ahead in life.

We all can develop this great quality by taking every challenge head on and not getting defeated by anything. If you fail, and feel like it’s never going to work out, each time tell yourself that ‘No, I have to try one more time! I will persevere, no matter what!’ If that becomes your attitude, then you’ll surely achieve whatever you wish to, one day! 😀
